Bug#425109: nautilus: Metadata not moved alongside folder

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.14.3-11+b1
Severity: normal


I used emblems to mark a series of photos in a folder.

Then I moved the folder (using nautilus, not with plain "mv" command line).

The folder at the destination place had lost all the emblems. I closed it.

By looking into ~/.nautilus/metafiles I saw an XML file corresponding to the original location. I renamed it to correspond to 
the new location, and then the emblems appeared when I reopened the new location.

I think the metafiles should be renamed when moving folders or copied when copying them (this part not tested).

Yours sincerely,
